Biochemical mediators of the immune system

MMPs

- Facilitate normal turnover of the connective tissue matrix - Collagen destruction

Prostaglandins

- Increase vascular permeability allowing inmune cells and complement to move to the infection site - PGE2 Alveolar bone destruction

Cytokines

- Recruit PMNs and macrophages to the infection site. - Initiate tissue destruction and bone

bacteria

The presence of periodontal pathogens does not necessarily mean that an individual will experience periodontitis.

3. Established gingivitis - subgingival plaque phase

2. Early gingivitis - plaque overgrowth phase

1. Early bacterial accumulation phase
